    She’s a beaut! And she’s real, saw it on TGTrader and wasn’t sure. Half the ads on there are scams these days. Good luck with sale!

    If those are samples of the ammo you have available in the photo with the BFR, dumb question - why is the cylinder so long compared with the lengths of the ammo? ... Are there other calibers (eg 50-110) that might be longer which the BFR can also shoot?

    Since the 500 and 460 are longer than say the 454 or 480 (small frame bfr's) instead of developing a new frame size they used the same (large frame) they use for the 30-30, 450 marlin and 45-70

    Question - Have you ever shot 700-grain ammo with it and, if so, how was the accuracy?

    No, I haven't shot any soup cans out of it. Shot a cylinder of 500's, no difference in accuracy from the 350 or 400's
